“Good Samaritans have answer when robber asks ‘You guys want to get cut?'”

Brothers Joel (left) and Andrew Leach went running when they heard a woman screaming for help in the south loop. She had been bitten by a man who stole her cellphone. The Leach brothers chased him. Here’s the Tribune’s account:

But the man turned on them and said, “Do you guys want to get cut?” according to the police report.

Apparently Leach must be a Crocodile Dundee fan. Kudos to the brothers for getting involved. (But am I the only person who thinks they did so at great personal risk, not just from the robber, but from law enforcement? Guess that’s just one of the costs of racism.)
